In an exclusive clip shared with People Magazine, before the upcoming season six premiere of The Kardashians, Kim Kardashian reveals that she is “really conflicted” about her daughter North’s emerging career.
In a clip, the 44-year-old discussed how she’s balancing her 11-year-old daughter’s rising star with her own career in a scene, talking with mom, Kris Jenner and sister, Khloe.
“I thought I was busy before. North, me having to be her momager right now is crazy. It’s just, it was not on my list. It was not on my Bingo card for this year,” Kim said to her mother and sister.
“It’s a lot of work,” Kris confirms. “It’s a lot of energy.”
“And I’m not ready,” Kim responded.
Khloe adds, “You’re like, I have my own s— to manage.”
Kim concluded, “If she has a shoot, I have to be there all day, so it’s like her or me.”
In a confessional moment on the show, the mother-of-four went on to admit that she has really struggled and has been conflicted with prioritizing her daughter’s career opportunities over life experiences.
“I’m really conflicted on my daughter’s career, so we’re going to talk about that soon,” she shared.
“I just really want to make sure that everything’s really well balanced. All of the work experiences are balanced out with just enough fun life experiences. I just want balance.”
North’s star has unquestionably been on the rise. Just this year alone, the eldest daughter of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West has starred as Young Simba in a production of The Lion King; was featured on West’s song “Talking / Once Again”; and most recently, she showed off her Japanese skills on FKA twigs’ new song, “Childlike Things.”
Earlier this year, the SKIMS founder appeared on an episode of Erin and Sara Foster’s podcast, World’s First Podcast, opening up about taking on the “momager” role, something that she says that she was “kind of forced into.”
“You know, if North has something and I have to take off filming to do something with her, it just has to be a family decision. And really important to her.”
“There’s so much that I’ve stopped because it’s too much, and I’m really not ready to be a “momager,” and I’m kind of forced into this.”
In addition to North, Kim also shares three other children with West: sons, Saint and Psalm and another daughter, Chicago.
